Today we had Vince Van Rossum reading Frank O'Hara's 'St. Paul and All That'. We talked about the big things of the night that are forgotten in the morning, Alex Turner and stripping off to reveal what we really feel.

In this interview with the US Ambassador to the Netherlands, Pete Hoekstra, we addressed the uprising in the aftermath of the brutal killing of George Floyd, while then moving on to focus on domestic policy towards Covid, and foreign policy towards China. For most people, it seems worrisome and obvious that the tensions between China and The United States are, and will continue to be, record high. The Ambassador has strong opinions on all these issues and the conversation is scintillating throughout, not least due to the interviewers, Elmer Hoogland and Sarah Bronkhurst.

No school of thought has refabricated representation and its power dynamics as that of black feminism and intersectional studies. From racism in the Netherlands, to black visibility, we invited queen supreme of unapologetic fierceness Janeth Domingos to spill the tea. Time's up to look at the entire color spectrum.

Lockdown is getting lifted but in true Cummings style the Donkcast isn’t going anywhere. Felix, Adam and Roman, are back and this time interviewing none other than the brilliantly named Lucy Stoner. A DJ of epic proportions, founder of DoesItBang? and pioneer of stateside Donkage, Lucy talks about the scene in California and the magical festival that is Bangface. A great chat all in all with some hidden gems that will expand anyone's knowledge on the beautiful genre (Donk). Listen in for the fourth episode of the Donkcast.

This one goes all the way to the top. You think Epstein killed himself? THINK AGAIN! You believe Pizzagate is a restaurant? Not according to Alex Jones. Oh, and Avril Lavigne is dead. Be sure to stick around to the end to learn about Cicada 3301, which BLEW Lenny’s mind.

Identity is an amalgamation of emotions and an eradication of selfhood through self-discovery. As an eclipse of experience, our sentimentality plays a role in how we see, sense and sensor the world around. From androgyny to high butch, we step out onto the world's gendered stage limbing our way to an impossible fulfilment. Words aside, we invited bird of paradise Kevin Pieterse to talk to us about theatricality, scenography, and identity.

This week the Comedy Undergradz kick it right out of the bat with topical jokes based on real news headlines. They also wrote freshly baked jokes on the randomly generated word "lost." That inspired Diederik to lose his mind, you'll want to listen. Lara says every joke can be relatable, Benny tells her she's not an African American woman. Akos laughs farther from the mic. We promise.

This week is a very different kind of episode, as we are fortunate to speak with two sex workers and rights activists, Yvette and Claus. They provide us with a unique and alternative insight into the industry, dispelling some myths and common stereotypes. We also learn how the industry is struggling to cope during this pandemic, especially with the Dutch government’s unfair restrictions and new legislation they’re looking to implement. Listen now and let us know your thoughts on the matter.

Do you need an extra 6 credits but don't know where to begin? Or perhaps you have MUN experience and are looking to chair the debate of the year? Well look no further my friends, UNISCA has you covered! From the 29th of June to the 10th of July the UNISCA conference will be taking place. Felix sat down with UNISCA board member, Judy Samman, to discuss the ins and outs of their lovely programme and MUN at large, as well as some much needed analysis of German ASMR, Oasis and couches.

From one world calamity to another: Adam Tooze is a historian and professor at Colombia University and has written a book on how the 2008 financial crisis changed our world. In this interview, however, Room for Discussion gets him talking on all things corona. How can we use the dynamics of the 2008 crisis to understand our current situation? What's going to happen to the Trade War, or to emerging markets? These are just some of the topics covered with Mr Tooze.

Allie is joined by Jochem to discuss the German electronic label, Giegling. It’s difficult to put into words the emotions thread together throughout their releases. For one of the label’s founders, Konstantin, when trying to describe this evocative feeling, he notes: “It's a resonance of being…of being in a certain time, with certain people. It's something immaterial, but something true, something worth living for.” Listen to hear our favorite tracks, and a few of our favorite mixes/sets are in the show notes. Good to note: in this episode, Allie and Jochem do not discuss Traumprinz /DJ Metatron….this mysterious genius merits his/her/their own next episode :) Tracklist: 1. Leafar Legov - Talk 2. Leafar Legov - Wild Is The Wind (Live from Studio R) 3. Map.ache - Dream / Awake 4. Kerala Dust & DWIG - Untitled (Late Sun) - Another Shade of DWIG Remix 5. DWIG - Cherrytree 6. Leafar Legov - Hidden Treasure 7. Kettenkarussell - Everything 8. DWIG - Have To Go Before You’re Gone 9. Leafar Legov - In Your Mirror

Dear listeners and fellow donk enthusiasts, I hope you have been enjoying the first 2 Donkcast and are ready for our third outing. Although there is no Lobsta B, it is packed with the insightful and high quality content you have come to expect. However, not all went according to plan in Episode 3, Revenge Of The Donk. A disaster struck that I must shoulder the responsibility for as it was my fault. No excuses can be made and therefore I apologise to you, the listener, as well as the wider donk community. I would also like to apologies to my fellow Donkcast members, although far from perfect themselves (Felix hates Lobsta B, Adam thinks DJ Southern Rail is a trainline). I’m sure my mortal sin shall not be forgotten and I hope to grow as a person from it with time. You may ask what was this wrongdoing of unimaginable proportions. Find out in the latest showing of The DONKCAST only on UvA Radio. Big Beats, Roman

Frank Sheppard & Floris Nielsen came throughout and delivered some beautiful blues sounds with deep vocals that make you float through your reality. The mixture of spoken word and music make for the title of their new CD, two tales one song. Beautiful yet gritty and raw, check the vibes.
